Download or read book Finite Difference Computing With PDEs written by Hans Petter Langtangen and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-08 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This easy-to-read book introduces the basics of solving partial differential equations by means of finite difference methods. Unlike many of the traditional academic works on the topic, this book was written for practitioners. Accordingly, it especially addresses: the construction of finite difference schemes, formulation and implementation of algorithms, verification of implementations, analyses of physical behavior as implied by the numerical solutions, and how to apply the methods and software to solve problems in the fields of physics and biology.
